The first of its kind, Profhilo® is a revolutionary ‘beneath the skin’ hyaluronic acid moisturising and remodelling treatment. Its patented NAHYCO® technology results in a unique hyaluronic acid injectable gel, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. Once injected, Profhilo stimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.
Unlike wrinkle reducing and dermal filler treatments, Profhilo is made of a completely natural skin substance that blends into our skin seamlessly and distributes itself evenly. It stimulates the body’s own natural production of collagen and elastin for a more rejuvenated appearance.
This patented technology remains unique in the industry for its regenerative properties and for providing treatment solutions, which are not achievable with other products or treatments.
Profhilo HA is hydrophilic, which means that it draws out and holds water from your body. Profhilo also acts as a hydrater rather than a filler. This makes it a fantastic alternative to those with tired, dull-looking skin who are wanting to create that firm and luminous look. This effect will take place around 3 – 5 days after treatment.
Profhilo uses one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, and not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue. This ultra- pure hyaluronic acid is precisely injected into the areas to be treated. The most common areas of treatment include the face, neck and the décolletage, where it would effectively treat skin laxity. The treatment offers skin benefits for men and women of all ages. Profhilo treatments have visible effects after just two sessions, spaced one month apart.
Profhilo may fall in the injectable category but, just as fillers and botox are made up of different ingredients and serve different functions, Profhilo is a completely different treatment. In that sense, Profhilo is completely different from fillers and botox and should not be seen as a replacement, but as an addition. It is also a perfect starter option (on its own) for less mature skin that does not (yet) need other cosmetic injectables. It is very popular, as the results are guaranteed to be natural looking.
A lot of patients start to see an improvement in their skin within a week of their treatment. The real results however will start to show around the 6-8 week mark as this is the time that it takes for the body to start producing collagen and elastin which is what really makes the difference in terms of results and what you see on the surface.
